Fulham were not particularly pleased that United’s goal was given, however, as Calvin Bassey was adamant he had been unlawfully pushed by Yoro.
“That goal… I think everyone in the world saw what happened there,” Fulham boss Marco Silva told Match of the Day.
“Everyone that watches the game on TV and everyone who saw it in the stadium saw it.”
Bassey added: “For me, it is clear and obvious. He has got two hands in the back and he [Yoro] has created an advantage for himself.
“If there is no contact, I get up there and fight with him. He has clearly stopped me from getting to the ball.
“For me, it should clearly be a foul.”
If you saw it, was it a foul? Thumb us below.
